How about apologizing for lying about WMDs and then withdrawing troops as soon as it is humanely possible to do so?
Or how about putting American troops under the command of a truly representative Iraqi government? Notice that the U.S. decision to choose Iyad Allawi as the Prime Minister of Iraq on June 30th is regarded suspiciously by Iraqis and other Muslims. Allawi looks a lot like another Chalabi. Like Chalabi he is an Iraqi exile with a suspicious past and close ties to American government agencies, especially the CIA. When will the Bush administration put the wishes of the Iraqi people ahead of itÂ’s own financial and political greed?
Or if that is too drastic, put American troops under the command of a U.N. peacekeeping force that is commanded by a non-American?

Without media coverage people wouldn't live in fear, and terrorist organisations would have a hard time getting funding.

Why should people keep silent when they think that the current admintration has made a HUGE MISTAKE. That is the most important time to speak up.
None of the 9/11 terrorists was Iraqi. None of them were based in Iraq. Bush lied about WMDs to persuade the American people to support his attack on Iraq. (If he did not lie then where are the WMDs, insein?)
Saddam was not an Islamic fundamentalist. He even arrested people for praying too much. Saddam modeled himself after the atheist Stalin. ThatÂ’s why there were statues and pictures of Saddam, not religious symbols, all through Iraq.
“Saddam Hussein models himself after Stalin more than any other man in history.
He has a full library of books about Stalin. He reads about him, and when he was a young man -- even before he attained any measure of power -- he used to wander around the offices of the Ba'ath Party telling people "Wait until I take over this country. I will make a Stalinist state out of it yet." People used to laugh him off. They shouldn't have. It was a very serious proposition indeed.”

By attacking Iraq the U.S. has created more terrorists, than it has eliminated.
“Far from being crippled by the US-led war on terror, al-Qaeda has more than 18,000 potential terrorists scattered around the world and the war in Iraq is swelling its ranks, a report says today.”

For the sake of this conversation ONLY let's say Bush lied. Given the current mindset of some Americans combined with the need for secrecy in the WOT maybe lying was the only way to get America to engage the WOT where it is supported and encouraged. What if the plan is to firmly imbed some form of freedom RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE of the terrorist world in order to
make intelligence gathering easier and encourage the terrorists to attack us there? We're killed thousands as they stream in from neighboring coutries. Using the ends to justify the means? So what---no one said this WOT would be fair or pretty. If I have to tell a lie to save lives, I will do it. Any attempt to prove that by attacking Iraq we created MORE terrorists is bullshit.
